Matthew 12:4 in Context — Matthew 12
2 Y viéndolo los Fariseos, le dijeron: He aquí tus discípulos hacen lo que no es lícito hacer en sábado.
3 Y él les dijo: ¿No habéis leído qué hizo David, teniendo él hambre y los que con él estaban:
4 Cómo entró en la casa de Dios, y comió los panes de la proposición, que no le era lícito comer, ni á los que estaban con él, sino á solos los sacerdotes?
5 O ¿no habéis leído en la ley, que los sábados en el templo los sacerdotes profanan el sábado, y son sin culpa?
6 Pues os digo que uno mayor que el templo está aquí.
